A GAMBLER’S CHANCE. This is the year for the seventeen year locusts but having weathered worse, storms why should we worry. It is noticable that "the present Democratic congress makes no effort to provide revenue by the tariff route. Xenia, the only oasis in the county, had better hurray and get the water virorslc in good condition, for Ohio is going dry next May. , • Let one and all keep February 12th in mind. You can honor a great man’s birthday by recognizing The Cedar- villa Community Club. The reason, the government only has 2,100 of those $1,000 hills is to make it hard for any of us common mortets to find one,' ' The general sentiment is that tbit . - country must feed tbe world the next |five years. But who is' to feed the un ’'employed here? The New.York Bankers are said tc be unanimous in the opinion that -the next Liberty Loan should" call for a ’ fivcpar cent interest rate. In the lighi .of recent exposures we doubt oursel­ ves whether the pry of patriotism wih *‘ will sell the next issue. . During the week of February 11 to 17, “Father and'Sou Week” will be Observed throughout the-country. A „■better understanding between father and son, in the home and in religious, social and business life is expected, as a result of this movement.. 1 A news report has it that a com- pany in New York has been formed .' and is buying up great quantities oi liquor and shipping it abroad for stor­ age. It is proposed to beep a vessel anchored out the three mile limit • where the thiraty can go on 'tugs and ' have their thirst satisfied and. yet be outside o f Uncle Sam’s jurisdiction. t One step at a time is what we us- ■ualiy take, and.that one step enables tpa to,see how to take the next step. ’■Many people err in wanting to see a long distance before them, and in get­ ting discouraged because they cannot. >A man who can easily see throngh ' one pane o f glass cannot see through "ten panes when they are placed to­ gether, and it is just so in life. One step and one pane is the limit. . One month after the beginning of !the war the Kaiser sent a special mes­ sage to the late Colonel Roosevelt at Which time he.renewed his profession o f friendship and said he recalled .with pleasure the visit o f the Colenel to Berlin. The Colenel answered at once as follows: “Tell his majesty that I thank him for his expression of , .good will; also tell him that I recall with pleasure my visit to Berlin, just as I recall with great pleasure my subsequent visit to the king-and queen of th« Belgians.” We notice Drum press dispatches that * certain organisation of proba­ tion inclinations, but more of political aspirations for the control o f party affairs, is beginning to mix in nation­ al,politics and making ready to tell the people who will be nominated for president and who will not be. I f the people of this country are satisfied with the manner in which the government has been operated, the way extravagance has been coun­ tenanced, let, alone misfeasance in office, then you should lend support to such an organization, If you think contrary about govermental control from what we have had, then you had better be cautious about encouraging such a movement. The Republicans o f the nation tan profit from Ohio’s experience. Never but once, has the party elected a Rep­ ublican executive, in the past twelve years, since this ' organization has meddled in Republican politics in the state. .. The pemocats cannot hope for any­ thing better than to have such, a con­ dition arise, in fact it ja the only hope the party has at this time..If the Rep­ ublicans want to win thed had better have some of those questions o f re­ form -settled outside of patty lines. New York Republicans can vouch for that as the Democrats easily elected their candidate for governor because the Republican candidate had tried to reform everything and everybody dur­ ing his first term. ' ■/* Its only . .a gambler’s chance that the party could win on such issues. The Democrats are wise enough to ,eave reformation to the Republicans vhile. they get the management of state and national affairs. GO HOME! When tired, go home* When you vant consolation, go home. Whenyou you want fun; go home. .When you. ■vant to show others that you have reformed, . go home—and let your family get acquainted with’ the fact. When you want to show yourself at your best; £0 home and do the act there. When you feel like being ex­ tra liberal, go home and practice on your wife and children first. When you want to shine with more brilli­ ancy than usual, go home and light up the household. /— ‘ WANT LOWER FARES. . . Hugo Sfihlesainger, Prosecuting At­ torney of Franklin county is urged to bring suit against the government to reduce railroad fares to two cents a mile as they .were before the war.The suit is being brought by the United Commercial Travelers, an organiza­ tion of traveling men. The claim is that a war emergency no longer ex­ ists and' that the fares should be re- returned to the old rate, COMMUNITY CLUB BANQUET. Time:Wednesday evening, Febru­ ary 12, Lincoln night, at 6:30.

Upon receipt of the news of the marvelous deliver­ ance o f the Israelites from the Egyp­ tians Jethro went out to meet Moses. . 2, The object '(vv. 2-4). It was to bring to Moses his wife and children. When God called him to go. to Egypt ta deliver his people Moses did not deem It wise to take with him his wife and children, therefore left them with his father-in-law. Now that God had wrought so wonderfully it was deemed wise* for his family to Join him. 3. The place (vv. 6, 6), At ML Sinai, .where the Israelites were encamped. II. Moses’ Reception to Jethro (18: ,7-12). . . '' • .. . Moses honored him not only as his father-in-law, but as the priest o f Mid-. Ian.. Jethro, though outside o f the covenant people, evidently retained traditions of the true God, as Melchiz- edek before film .did. It seems to hhve been a case of mutual affection and es­ teem. Moses rehearsed to Jethro the wonders . which .God had wrought through him, and Jethro. (1) “Rejoiced for all the goodness which the Lord had done unto Pharaoh and the Egyp­ tians for Israel’s sake” (v. 9). (2) Blessed the Lord (v, 10). (3) Con­ fessed the supremacy of the Lord (v. .11). (4 )‘ Offered sacrifices to God (v. 12). „ ' III. Jethro’e Counsel (13:13-26). , 1. The occasion thereof (vv. 13-18). The day after Jethro came to Moses he observed how completely Hoses’ time was taken In judging Israel, When he saw the greatness of the task h e Inquired as to why he was doing the work all alone. Jethro was a shrewd man-—he saw tl t a wise ad­ ministration o f affairs would make a division o f labor. Moses explained to Mm that his task was not merely a matter o f judging, but o f teaching the statutes, and laws o f God to the peo­ p le Jethro recognized Moses’ motive, but Insisted that the method was not a good one, as it would result in the wasting Uway o f his. strength. Many times one wastes his strength in doing" that which others could do so that he Is unable' to do the more important things. 1 2. Jethro’s plan (vv. 19-23).’ (1) Moses to be unto the people Godwurd —to bring their causes unto God and teach them the ordinances, and laws, to show them thp way wherein they must walk, and the work which they must do, (2) Suitable men' should be pro­ vided as rulers over thousands, hun­ dreds, fifties and tens (v. 21). All great matters should be disposed of by Moses and all subsidiary matters should be adjusted by these judges. 8. Qualifications o f these subordinate judges (v. 21). (1) “Able men,” that Is, men o f strength. They must be men of such intellectual power as would enable them to understand the prob­ lems presented, and o f such will power us to execute the judgments rendered, A strong man Is one who knows M b own mind and Is faithful to I t (2) “Such as fear God.” This Is the basis o f true strength. Only those are fit to Judge and rule men who recognize the rule o f God over their lfves. The true statesman is the man who gives God the rightful place In his life. The one who really trusts and fears God can be trusted to administrate the af­ fairs o f men. (3) “Men of truth.” The one who really trusts and fears God must himself be a lover of the truth. He must be willing to follow after the truth at any cost. His nature must be Open to the truth, (4) “Hating cov­ etousness.” He must be a hater o f un­ just gain. The man who Is to be a ruler of the pcop’ e must be free from the suspicion of following his profes­ sion because o f personal gain. The one set to do such work should be able to show clean bands. IV. Moses Accedes to Jethro’s Coun* eel, (18:24-26). This common sense advice met a re­ sponse in Moses’ heart. He recog­ nized that God was speaking through Jethro. After all, the knowledge and fear o f God was wider than the chosen people. According to Deuter­ onomy 1:9-18 the people selected the Judges and Moses appointed them. Like a Stream.
